The Moment That Matters: A Story about Controlling Emotions, Choices and Strength

By Garry L. Smith

The Moment That Matters is a powerful story about how one choice can change everything. After a long game of basketball, Garry witnesses two players on the verge of a fight. Then, the world freezes, time itself standing still, so a familiar, calm stranger can show Garry what's really hiding behind their anger.
Through quiet observation and gentle wisdom, Garry learns that anger is often just the surface, beneath it can be sadness, fear, or pain. And in the heat of the moment, we all have the power to pause, to breathe, and to choose a different path.
This moving tale blends suspense, empathy, and emotional growth, reminding children that feelings are real, but they don't have to control us.
